Recommendation

In this illuminating podcast, David Dollar, a senior fellow at Brookings, interviews economist Eswar Prasad about developments in and possible outcomes of the US–China trade negotiations. In their insightful dialogue, conducted shortly before the December 2019 announcement of a proposed phase-one deal, the two discuss structural elements of the Chinese economy and their importance in the conflict. Business executives and policy analysts interested in a broad perspective of the state of US–China economic relations will glean valuable information from this concise conversation.

Take-Aways

  • US–China trade tensions are inducing changes in China’s economy, but international corporate spending and investment decisions remain disrupted.
  • A comprehensive agreement is likely to unfold in two or more phases.
  • Reaching a broad trade pact will not be easy or quick, and it will require compromises by both countries.
